(Magnoliaceae)

Magnolia kobus v. borealis - BSWJ12751

Pot Size: 20 litre
Price: £65.00
Description:
Another large shrub to small tree forming hardy species, which we collected the seed of from a small copse of this larger leafed variety, from Kohung-Gun, a large island-like peninsular on the south coast of Korea in 2010. At first it was difficult to make out what we were looking at, as there was so much orange fruit on the small trees, almost hiding the obovate-spatulate leaves to 17cm long. In April to May they carry a mass of white slightly fragrant flowers, stained pink at the base on the outside of this variety, from the age of approximately 12. Easily grown in most types of fertile drained soils in sun or part shade. *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** Larger plants also available from the open ground during the cooler months. 50lt 3-4m tall
